How Students Learn
Corwin and The Australian Council for Educational Leaders are proud to present the first of our Visible Learning series for 2020. Three events will be presented this May in Canberra, Sydney and Brisbane. Each event is held over two full days featuring a Visible Learning Foundation Day and Symposium Sessions.
Each workshop will encompass a new Symposium day - “How Students Learn” presented by Professor John Hattie and Sam Rodgers as well as a Foundation Day workshop presented by Visible LearningPlus Certified Consultant. We invite you to be among the first to register today.
SYMPOSIUM WITH PROFESSOR JOHN HATTIE AND SAM RODGERS There is a science to learning and we are finding out more and more about what works best to support the learning processes that make a difference for learners. During this day you will hear about a research-based model of learning and how to apply the principles to achieve more effective learning outcomes for your learners. You will consider how learning strategies can be used to maximise impact so that learners develop the skill, the will and the thrill of learning and what strategies work best at the surface, deep and transfer phases of learning.
Practical examples, insights and strategies to reflect on and use in your own practice is at the heart of this day.
Participants will go deeper into:
- How students learn by understanding the ‘Model of Learning’
- Exploring the phases of learning and the unique importance of each: surface, deep, and transfer
- Identifying learning strategies that are more impactful at the surface, deep and transfer phases of learning
- Considering how to strategise what practices to implement at the right time in a student’s learning to achieve more effective learning outcomes for all learners
This day is suitable for educators interested in understanding how students learn regardless of age or stage of development.
FOUNDATION DAY Presented by Visible LearningPlus Certified Consultant At the core of today’s learning is the narrative of Professor John Hattie’s Visible Learning research, which has been distilled into five key strands. We will begin the day by providing background knowledge of the Visible Learning research, which seeks to investigate “what works best” in education. It is from this research base that we will then go deeper into each of the key Visible Learning strands that describe the themes uncovered in the research and what the research looks like in practice. We will then conclude the day with a session on the 10 Mindframes for Success.
The day is designed to consider ways of supporting educators to ‘see the learning through the eyes of the student and students to see themselves as their own teachers.’
